The options listed are great if you're going for a "historical" Trojan War, Minoan/Mycaenaean l.

If/when I get around to the project, though, I'll just be using typical classical Greeks with suitably converted heroes, since that seems to be how they're always depicted in vase paintings, and the Trojan War seems to have been a very popular subject for that.

If it was me I would go with "historical" if wanting a realistic game but with Hoplites/classical look if using gods.
I have always admired the Bronze Age minis Greeks.  Gorgon Studios also have some great figures. 
Whichever you do, I'm sure you will have fun.

The Gorgon Studios Etruscan figures mentioned are very well done and fit with Redoubt in scale.

Crocodile Games has a line of Trojan War/Ancient Greece figures.  They are beautiful figures but definitely fantasy and considerable larger than some of the other lines mentioned.
